Abstract

Elaeocarpus ganitrus, also known as Rudraksha, is a member of the Elaeocarpaceae family and has a long history of antidepressant and antibacterial benefits against various illnesses. Elaeocarpus ganitrus has been used in Unani and Ayurveda medicine as an antidepressant, an antibiotic, and as an external treatment for mental disease, epilepsy, liver discomfort, and stomach pain. In addition, it is used to treat a variety of other conditions, including hepatic diseases, dyspepsia, skin infections, blood purification, asthma, tumors, and wounds. Their biological effects include their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, anticancer, hepatoprotective, immunomodulatory, antifertility, antibacterial, and antidepressant properties. To further explore the trends and perspectives for future research, a thorough discussion of Elaeocarpus ganitrus' taxonomic classification, traditional uses, botanical description, phytochemical components, pharmacology, and safety aspects is required.
